Lyrics

[SENATORS] Mmm, mmm Mmm, mmm [THROTTLEBOTTOM] The Senator from Minnesota? [MINNESOTA SENATOR] Present [THROTTLEBOTTOM] Check The Senator from North Dakota? [NORTH DAKOTA SENATOR] Present [THROTTLEBOTTOM] Check The Senator from Louisiana? [LOUISIANA SENATOR] Present [THROTTLEBOTTOM] Check The Senator who's from Montana? [MONTANA SENATOR] Present [THROTTLEBOTTOM] Check The Senator who's from Nebraska? [NEBRASKA SENATOR] Present [THROTTLEBOTTOM] Check The Senator who's from Alaska? [ALASKA SENATOR] Present [THROTTLEBOTTOM] Check The Senators from other states will have to bide their time For I simply can't be bothered when the names don't rhyme [SENATORS] Oh, he simply can't be bothered when the names don't rhyme The Senators from other states will have to bide their time For he simply can't be bothered when the names don't rhyme Mmm, mmm Mmm, mmm [THROTTLEBOTTOM] The country thinks it's got depression [SENATORS] Ha! Ha! Ha! [THROTTLEBOTTOM] Just wait until we get in session [SENATORS] Ha! Ha! Ha! [THROTTLEBOTTOM] The people want a lot of action [SENATORS] Ho! Ho! Ho! [THROTTLEBOTTOM] We're here to give them satisfaction [SENATORS] Ho! Ho! Ho! [THROTTLEBOTTOM] Today is really full of laughter [SENATORS] Ha! Ha! Ha! [THROTTLEBOTTOM] Compared to what will follow after [SENATORS] Ha! Ha! Ha! [THROTTLEBOTTOM] There's action every minute when this happy group convenes To get business into tangles We can guarantee more angles Than the town of Boston guarantees in beans [THROTTLEBOTTOM & SENATORS] If you think you've got depression Wait until we get in session And you'll find out what depression really means Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!
